About BI

BI combines an understanding of how we all make decisions plus rigorous research methods to tackle a variety of problems from sustainability to compliance to employee engagement and beyond. UBC Sauder’s Behavioural Insights programs can provide you with the BI skills and knowledge to make evidence-based policy and product decisions to increase your strategic impact.

About UBC’s BI Programs
  • Learn how to add a BI lens to how you approach problems by enrolling in UBC’s Fundamentals of Behavioural Insights course. This three-week, live online course provides an introduction to behavioural insights, experimentation, and ethics. This course is next offered April 17-May 7. (This course is also a required prerequisite for the Advanced Professional Certificate and this is the last time it will be offered prior to this year’s application deadlines!)
  • Learn how to develop and test appropriate BI solutions for different challenges by applying for UBC’s Advanced Professional Certificate in Behavioural Insights. The certificate is rigorous BI Practitioner training that combines live online coursework and a capstone project to help you develop your BI knowledge and skills. The early-bird deadline for applications for the 2023-2024 cohort is May 31.
What Program Alumni Say

“I would recommend the Advanced Professional Certificate in Behavioural Insights (BI) to anybody looking to advance their experience and education in BI. I chose this program as it is the only BI certificate being offered in Canada. The virtual nature of the certificate allowed me to continue working full time during the program. Since completing the certificate, I was given the opportunity to serve as the Lead of the BC Behavioural Insights Group for six months.”
